The organic Annou sweet potato from Goto Shoten Sato no Imoya is known for its sticky sweetness with a sugar content of over 30 degrees Brix. Its rich flavor makes it seem as if it is oozing with honey, and it is popularly known as the "honey potato."

This year's fair will feature special autumn sweets with the sweet potato as the main ingredient, layered with the fragrant aroma of brulee. Enjoy this melt-in-your-mouth autumn dish, created by combining a variety of ingredients such as salted butter, honey lemon, and brown sugar, in pancakes and pies.

"Osmanthus Tea" is the perfect autumn dessert.

The gentle, sweet, and somewhat nostalgic aroma of osmanthus flowers, which herald the arrival of autumn, softly spreads throughout the black tea. The rich sweetness of the sweet potato harmonizes with the aroma, creating a deep, lingering aftertaste with each sip, further deepening the flavor.
